Afternoon Links: Sarah Silverman’s Dead Pilot Now Lives Online

Sarah Silverman was so close to having an NBC sitcom last year. It was called Susan 313 and it would’ve followed Silverman rebounding from a 10-year relationship. (Sound familiar?) The pilot featured excellent comedian Tig Notaro, an impeccable Jeff Goldblum cameo, and stripping. And it’s now online even though it never made it to TV! It gets extra special at the one-third mark. Enjoy.

Peter Jackson’s post–Middle Earth career looks like this: “We [Jackson and writing/producing partner/wife Fran Walsh] just want to step off the Hollywood blockbuster thing for a while and we’ve had a few New Zealand stories in line for a while that we think would make great films. The Heavenly Creatures mode, really.”
